I’d Write More But My ‘Thritis Is Actin’ Up
I could start this with, “Oh my back. My aching back!”
Or how about, “That damned sciatica is throbbing. Must be rain on the way.”
No matter what it is, it’s not descriptive enough of those moments when you feel, “I’ve hit an oil patch and I’m just skidding towards the grave.” (Edwina Monsoon - Absolutely Fabulous). [...]
A Life Worth Living
Has it really been since December 13, 2009 since I’ve contributed to this child? I feel like a neglectful parent. You know, the kind that Children’s Aid has to come in because I’ve gone out clubbing1 and left them alone with a bag of Oreo’s in the play pen.
Writing hasn’t been coming easy to me. [...]
Waiting For My Rocket To Come
I was chatting, as I am wont to do, on another chat home.
It was a nice chat and that person on the other end of the internet spectrum suggested that I should continue to write on my blog. That’s it’s been far too long. And while I can’t disagree with them there’s far too many [...]
Idle Hands
If I had a car my bumper sticker would read, “Put off today what you can do next week.”
I admit it, freely. I am the most procrastinating person on the planet. I hate having to do “stuff”.
The bland stuff, oh sure. How many times can one watch the Star Wars trilogy?
A full day, I’ve had [...]
I Shizzled My Fassizle
Well it’s been a while. I’m still having to post via the back door and it’s still slightly confusing me.
When I get used to learning something then learning something new is hard for this lack of grey matter.
HOMER: “Whenever I learn something new it pushes the old stuff out my brain. Remember when I took [...]
Just Stop And Look
This morning I was doing my duty as a dog owner, poop bag in hand, walking the dog when I took a second and just looked up.
There it was, at 7:10 am1 the moon shining in the sky while the sun was coming up.
In these moments when I feel crushed about debt, loss of hope [...]
Carol King, Sing Me Home!
“Snow is cold,
Rain is wet
Chills my soul right to the marrow”
(Carol King)
Who on this earth can explain sadness?
Sure there are reasons, histories, biology, moments that are recalled in drunken stupors…
That’s all very nice and valid but what is the core root?
Music can turn me on to sadness like hand to faucet.
This weather pulls [...]
A New Day Has Begun!
Meeting two wonderful people! Merci M.C. and Mat!
sTV - Wacky Hailstorm Adventure
Freak hail storm in Toronto. Cooooooooool!
Realization - I’M THE RHODA!
So here’s the foot. Six days later. It’s getting better but I’m still limping.
I wouldn’t have missed Pride for anything!
Rufus is feeling better, thank God. I was getting tired of the clean up.
A BIG THANK YOU to ELLEN for taking Rufus on his walks and even cleaning up when he’d had an accident. [...]
